These 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies are amazingly quick and easy to make. Perfect for when you want homemade cookies but don't want to spend all afternoon in the kitchen!
Ingredients
- 1 cup (255g) creamy peanut butter*
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
- Mix the peanut butter, sugar, and egg until combined. (You can use an electric mixer or mix by hand.)
- Using about a tablespoonful of dough at a time, form the dough into balls. Place each one on the prepared pans, leaving about 2 inches between the cookies.
- Use a fork to flatten the cookies and make a cross-hatch pattern on top of each one.
- Bake (one pan at a time) 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the centers appear set.
- Place the pan on a wire rack and allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Then carefully transfer the cookies from the pan directly onto a wire rack to continue cooling.
Notes
*Regular peanut butter (like Jif or Skippy) will work best.
